    For me posts like this just make me embarrassed to be on Lemmy in general. It’s like making a post about how you get upset when you get an email from a Gmail account.

      And look at the responses you get for pointing out that everyone else is acting immature in here too. Yeah Lemmy is an embarrassment.

        Yeah. Lemmy was a good idea but I don’t think it’s user base will ever be good enough to make this a pleasant place for good communities to thrive. And it’s not because of tankies or liberals, it’s because of assholes.

          You made a comment that you’re ashamed of the platform. If that’s the case, I encourage you to seek out one more suitable.

            No I said this post made me embarrassed to be here. The instance fighting is one of the worst aspects of this site.

              Okay, if you feel embarrassed do something about it. No one’s going to stop arguing just because you feel embarrassed. Furthermore, the reason people are bashing people on ml is because their collective behavior has been atrocious. Here’s some things you could try:

              1. Advocate for a culture of better inter-instance conduct between ml and other platforms (this will likely get you ridiculed and if it ever works, it won’t be soon.)
              2. Get on an instance that isn’t as hostile (highly recommended)
              3. Leave the platform (this will produce the most immediate and thorough results)

              Edit: ah, look at that, the Russians woke up and the downvotes are pouring in.
